Galxe Is Winding Down Quest, ID and Passport: What Ends on December 15

• 9 November 2026: Spaces could no longer create campaigns, and new Galxe+ and Galxe Score subscriptions, as well as new Galxe Passport mints, stopped.
• 5 December 2026: the last day to participate in any campaign. No campaigns remain active after that.
• 15 December 2026: reward claims close and the site switches to read-only mode.

From 11 November, that leaves 24 days to finish campaign activity and 34 days to claim rewards. The announcement gives no time of day for either cutoff, so the 15 December deadline should be treated as ending at 23:59 UTC, rather than as a full extra day of trading.

The announcement’s second sentence is unambiguous: “On December 15, 2026, campaign reward claims will close, and the entire Galxe website will switch to read-only mode.” Read-only means the interface remains as an archive. It does not mean campaigns will resume, rewards will continue accruing, or new credentials can be issued.

What Already Stopped on 9 November

The first set of changes took effect on the day of the announcement, not at the December deadlines. “Starting today, Spaces can no longer create new campaigns,” the post says. “New Galxe+ and Galxe Score subscriptions and Galxe Passport minting are also no longer available.”

That sequence matters to anyone running a growth campaign. A project that has not yet launched an activation on Galxe cannot start one now, regardless of its budget. The remaining five weeks are a closing period for campaigns already underway, not a final quarter of production.

Galxe’s documentation has yet to reflect the product decision. As of 11 November, the homepage still described Galxe Passport as a live product that stores identity data for reuse across applications, and continued to advertise the Score reputation system. Both are on the wind-down list. The announcement is the controlling source; the marketing copy has not caught up.

Gravity Gets the Team, While G Retains Its Gas Role

The stated reason for the shutdown is consolidation, not a failure of the campaign business on its own terms. “Galxe is consolidating its team and brand under Gravity to accelerate the development and adoption of Gravity L1,” the announcement says, crediting the campaign products with a record of serving users and partners.

The division of responsibilities after the change is straightforward. Gravity is a proof-of-stake layer 1 with an EVM runtime. Its own description claims throughput above one gigagas per second, sub-second finality and an ecosystem of more than 25 million users. G pays gas fees, carries governance weight and serves as the network’s native asset; quest rewards were migrated onto that network.

Structurally, Galxe is retaining the settlement layer while dropping the consumer application that fed it. The token’s value case shifts from campaign volume to chain usage.

That is a substantive shift, not merely a relabelling, but the announcement provides no figures on this point. The post does not say how much of Gravity’s activity came from Galxe Quest, so the amount of activity Gravity must replace cannot be determined from the source.

The Token Priced in the Exit Before the Post Went Up

G’s 90-day price history suggests the market was already anticipating this outcome. The daily series peaked at $0.01056 on 20 September and has fallen 71.4% since then, including 29.2% over the past 30 days and 55.2% over twelve months. The 9 November close of $0.00293 was the period’s low, 4.3% below 8 November.

The subsequent trading is the more useful observation. G closed 10 November at $0.00301, up 2.6%, and traded at $0.00302 on 11 November, little changed over 24 hours. The quarter’s lowest close came on announcement day and was bought.

That is consistent with traders having already priced in the decision. It does not show that the announcement caused the move in either direction, since the same period included a market-wide drawdown.

Turnover suggests the token has not been abandoned. Daily volume of $4.20 million against a market cap of $21.87 million means 19.2% of its capitalisation changes hands each day, a rate associated with a token still in play rather than one being wound down. Fully diluted value is $36.29 million across 12 billion tokens. Of those, 7.23 billion, or 60.3%, are circulating.

The relevant price levels come from the same series. The 9 November close at $0.00293 is the reference floor. A daily close below that level on volume above the $4.2 million average would suggest a re-rating rather than the liquidation of a news event. The 20 September high of $0.01056 is the upside reference, and reaching it would require a catalyst that the announcement does not provide.

The Old GAL Ticker Still Shows a $57 Million Market Cap

Anyone comparing valuations on a data aggregator may encounter a trap. The legacy GAL listing, permanently labelled as migrated to G, still displays a price of $0.447 and a market cap of $57.16 million—2.61 times the $21.87 million attributed to the live G token. Its recorded 24-hour volume is $8.01, not $8 million. Eight dollars.

The discrepancy is a data artefact, not a second valuation. GAL no longer circulates as a separate asset. Holders were migrated to G on Ethereum and BNB Chain in the February 2026 migration, and the old ticker’s market cap is a remnant of a supply that no longer trades. Any table quoting “Galxe market cap: $57 million” is quoting a dead listing; the live figure is the one attached to G.

What Galxe Has Not Published: The Claim Process

The asset portion of the wind-down is the least documented. “User assets remain safe, including Smart Savings balances, staked G that has not yet been withdrawn, and G tokens held in wallets on Gravity Alpha Mainnet,” the post says.

It follows that with a qualification, rather than a schedule: “These assets will follow a separate claim process and timeline. We will publish the details and instructions in a follow-up announcement on our official X.”

That is a promise to provide instructions, not the instructions themselves. As of 11 November, there is no published claim date, no statement on whether claims must be made from the wallet holding the position, no Passport data export route, and no answer on whether rewards left unclaimed after 15 December can still be recovered.

The announcement sets a deadline for claims without explaining what happens to any balance remaining after it. Other wind-downs this month illustrate what is missing.

When Acala and Karura put their shutdowns to token votes, the proposals included a dated schedule accounting for each unbonding period. Holders could work backward from the stop date to determine when to act. Galxe’s campaign calendar is that specific; its asset calendar is not yet.

The published information points to an order of operations. Claim outstanding campaign rewards now rather than waiting until December, since the campaign and claim windows close ten days apart. Withdraw staked G if you intend to move it, because the post distinguishes between held balances and those still staked.

Follow the official account rather than third-party summaries. The claim mechanics will be published there first, and impersonation attempts are a predictable risk around a deadline like this.

Signals to Watch Before the Read-Only Switch

Three observable events lie between now and the end of the year. The first is the follow-up announcement with claim instructions, the only document that turns “assets remain safe” into a dated process. The second is 5 December, the last day for live campaigns and the point when partner integrations built on Galxe Quest stop receiving new activity.

The third is 15 December, when the site switches to read-only and the identity products can no longer be issued. Integrators that require a Galxe Passport credential to grant access will have to decide whether to continue accepting credentials that no issuer is refreshing. The announcement does not address that question; the answer is likely to appear in partner documentation rather than in a headline.

For G holders, the variable to watch is substitution, not shutdown. Gravity retains the token, the chain and the team. What remains unproven is whether activity from outside the Galxe ecosystem can support a $21.9 million valuation once campaign-driven traffic disappears on 5 December. Until that figure emerges, the token is trading on the transition itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Galxe shutting down?

Galxe is winding down Galxe Quest, Galxe ID and Galxe Passport, along with related services. Campaigns end on 5 December 2026 and reward claims close on 15 December 2026, when the website becomes read-only. Gravity, the layer-1 blockchain built by Galxe, will continue operating, and the G token will remain unchanged.

What happens to unclaimed Galxe rewards?

Campaign reward claims close on 15 December 2026, and the announcement does not say whether unclaimed rewards will remain recoverable after that date. Users should claim before the deadline instead of waiting for the follow-up announcement on asset claims.

Does the G token still work after the shutdown?

Yes. The announcement says the transition will not change the G token, which remains Gravity’s native asset and is used for gas, staking and governance. G traded at $0.00302 on 11 November 2026.

Can I still create a Galxe campaign?

No. Spaces lost the ability to create new campaigns on 9 November 2026, the day the announcement was made. New Galxe+ and Galxe Score subscriptions and new Galxe Passport mints also stopped that day. Existing campaigns will continue until 5 December 2026.

What happens to my Galxe Passport and Galxe ID data?

The announcement says Galxe ID and Galxe Passport are being wound down, but it does not describe a data export process or explain what will happen to stored credential data. Passport minting stopped on 9 November, and the site will become read-only on 15 December 2026.
